Yeji
The room is starting to get crowded with dancers and other staff of our company. A few staff members from the cafeteria are setting up the buffet at the corner of the party room.
Yuna and Chaeryeong are fixing their makeup while Lia is talking with one of our managers. Ryujin is nowhere to be seen, which, is good i guess.
The party is starting at 6pm, which is 25 minutes from now. The teaser for our new comeback is also going to be released at 6, so I'm pretty excited. I wonder how midzys will react about our new concept.
tick tock, tick tock
I watch the clock hands on my watch slowly turn as I wait for it to reach 6pm. The wait is killing me.
Oh by the way, outfit check.
15 minutes left and Ryujin is still not here, I hope she just doesn't come at all instead of being late. I don't have enough energy to deal with her, I didn't sleep that much yesterday. She has been appearing in my dreams ever since that night and I can't get any sleep whatsoever.
10 more minutes.
The four of us are sat on a sofa now waiting for the party to start.
"Ryujin is fashionably late again, I thought we agreed to all be here at 5:45? Even Lia-unnie is on time today." Chaeryeong breaks the silence.
Lia smacks Chaeryeong on the arm at her last statement.
"What? I'm complimenting you." Chaeryeong complains.
"That did not sound like one-" Lia and Chaereyong quarrel was cut short when a specific someone with shoulder-length dark hair with blonde highlights walked in the room.
"Speaking of the devil, there she is." I heard Yuna say, but her words were blurred and fuzzy and I felt giddy.
It was like I was in a K-drama.
Ryujin's eyes locked on mine as she notices where we are. I take in her outfit, shit she looks so hot. It feels like the world has slowed down, I subconsciously bite my lip as she walks towards us in what feels like slow motion.
She stops in the middle of the room to bow to some of the staff, her dazzling smile shining everwhere. Suddenly the world was playing at normal speed again, I regained my senses, close my eyes and put on a poker face.
You almost spiraled again, Yeji. Stop it.
Breathe, take deep breaths.
Inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale.
After I have partially calmed down, I open my eyes and Ryujin is right infront of the sofa now, talking to the other members.
"Why are you so late?" Chaeryeong questions the newly-arrived Ryujin.
